@rizzlarolla:


Not sure if this particular version (which has been modified to incorporate a unique? trust system) has a feature of "Simple Machine Forums" that has a small batch of stock images, usually of film stars or cartoon characters, you can also add your own series of images, and even replace the star system with (in BitCoinTalk's case) coins and scammer tag "X"'s, so it's little wonder that high volume battery farmed alts ^TM will lean heavily on the stock images included in "Simple Machine Forum" forums.

From recollection e1ghtSpace 's profile https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=256837 image https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_256837.jpg is one such stock cartoon image.

*edit* Just recalled also that in days long gone on certain UID's were allowed to have a profile pic (while most UID's weren't) so those accounts were the first to be traded...
